This painting by Chuck Close really shows how was/is a master of color. there are so many colors used in the different parts of the painting, but you can still tell what the original color should be. For example, you can tell that the child is wearing a red and white striped shirt, but there are many other different colors used besides red and white. This is especially when he paints skin tones, adding greens, blues, and purples to make one tone from a distance.
